Lia White lives a quiet life, tucked behind her screen as a graphic designer. It's simple. Safe. Controlled, just the way she needs it. But when Cassiel, the head of the New York Italian Mafia, and one of the richest men in the world notices her... her illusion of safety shatters.
Cassiel doesn't ask. He demands.
Cold and ruthless, to everyone but her, he forces Lia into becoming his personal assistant, using threats and leverage she can't ignore. He says it's business, but it's anything but. From the moment their eyes meet, he's obsessed. Cassiel doesn't just want her talent. He wants her submission. Her attention. Her life entangled in his.
And despite everything, despite the danger, the darkness, and the violence wrapped in silk and sin, Lia can't look away.
But Lia isn't who she seems. Beneath her calm surface are scars both physical and mental, with secrets she's fought to bury. When the past she's run from finally catches up with her, it sets off a brutal chain of events that no one sees coming.
Especially Cassiel.
Love turns to war. Passion turns to ruin.
And it might already be too late by the time the truth comes out.
She was his fire.
He was her darkness.
And together, they were destined to burn.

"𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐩, 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐩𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐚." Olivia groaned and crossed her arms, standing her ground. "Don't tell me what to do. You're not my dad." Amusement filled Santino's gaze as he stood up, abandoning the papers he desperately needed to read and sign. Yet, all that was forgotten as her bewitching lips protruded. "I might not be your dad but," a midnight lock of hair was pinned behind her ear, "I can be your papi." Shuddering, her body drew closer to him, betraying her mind. "You're sick." Taking the nape of her neck, Santino leaned down, his lips brushing against her ear. "Yet you still dream about my touch, don't you, principessa?" ❦ When Santino Adriano discovers that the Bratva has betrayed their neutrality by secretly working with his family's enemies, he's determined to send a brutal message that cannot be ignored. His target? The Bratva kingpin's sister, Olivia Morozov-a sheltered girl who knows little to nothing about the dark underworld her family controls, having been shielded from the darker truths of her family's empire her entire life. Fresh out of boarding school and blissfully oblivious to the power struggle boiling beneath her feet, Olivia is suddenly whisked away from everything she's ever known and thrust into a world where loyalty is weaponised and power is the ultimate prize. As secrets and long-buried lies unravel around her, she realises she's caught in a game where the unrelenting fight for power holds more value than human lives-including her own. Santino is cold, calculating, and relentless - everything Olivia should fear. Yet, she is intrigued by by his deadly nature. The line between fear and attraction is thin, and like a moth to a flame, she seeks him out, unafraid of the burn it may cause. She's never known anyone like him-an older, dangerous man who makes her question everything she thought she knew about desire. Olivia just didn't expect her captor to be so handsome.
